The AOC of TN Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District special election and the Democrats’ strategy to flip a deep-red seat. A high-stakes congressional race in Clay calls his home district. Democrats are pouring millions into this special election scheduled for December 2, hoping low Republican turnout during the holiday season will flip a Trump +20 seat. Clay warns that the Democratic candidate, Aftyn Behn, has an extreme record—supporting defunding police, cheering riots, and even chasing ICE agents—while Republicans must mobilize early voting to prevent a major upset. This race could become a national narrative ahead of the midterms, making turnout critical. Vote for Matt Van Epps! A focus on Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District special election, where candidate Matt Van Epps joins the show to discuss early voting deadlines, district confusion, and the stakes of stopping what he calls a “radical left-wing agenda.” Van Epps emphasizes key issues like affordability, inflation, energy independence, and tax cuts, while outlining his vision for supporting veterans, law enforcement, and working families. He also details the district’s geography—from Clarksville and Fort Campbell to Nashville and Franklin—and urges listeners to vote before Thanksgiving or on Election Day, December 2. Our Friend Kayleigh McEnany White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany analyzes recent judicial rulings dismissing cases against Letitia James and James Comey, explaining why these decisions were procedural rather than merit-based and how the Trump administration can refile. McEnany also weighs in on Marjorie Taylor Greene’s resignation, the GOP’s messaging on affordability, and innovative housing and tax proposals from President Trump’s administration, including no tax on tips and overtime. She highlights Trump’s economic record, contrasting it with Biden-era inflation, and predicts a political boomerang effect in the midterms. Listeners also hear candid insights on family, career balance, and motherhood from McEnany, followed by a lighter segment on the viral “Whispering Angel” rosé controversy involving Clay Travis. The hour closes with audience calls discussing Trump’s strategic approach to New York’s socialist policies, the impact of federal law enforcement in Memphis, and speculation about future Democratic leadership. Clay and Buck tease upcoming analysis on Venezuela, MTG’s political fallout, and Trump’s diplomatic chess moves with global leaders. Clay Meets the Pope Clay shares an exclusive story about his private Vatican tour, meeting the Pope, and exploring historical maps from the Age of Exploration, while Buck reveals his family’s genealogical ties to John Speed, Queen Elizabeth I’s chief cartographer. The conversation shifts to reflections on ancient Rome, the Coliseum’s role in sports history, and critiques of Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations as “philosophy lite,” even noting Bill Clinton’s admiration for the text. Clay contrasts America’s youth with Europe’s deep history, citing experiences in Italy, Greece, and Israel, and thanks ambassadors appointed by the Trump administration for facilitating his trip. Political analysis takes center stage with discussion of Marjorie Taylor Greene’s decision to leave Congress, framed as part of a troubling trend where “crazy” behavior is rewarded in media. The hosts critique social media’s lack of accountability and ego-driven infighting on the right, warning that attention-seeking undermines conservative principles. They praise President Donald Trump for his decisive strike on Iran, arguing it brought stability to the Middle East without American casualties and strengthened the Abraham Accords.Follow Clay & Buck on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/clayandbuck See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 1 of today’s Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives into major breaking stories and hard-hitting analysis. Buck Sexton is solo hosting while Clay is away on a super secret trip overseas for a very important meeting, and he kicks off the hour with updates on the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which is set for a vote during the program. Buck explains why Democrats are pushing this as a political distraction and emphasizes Donald Trump’s stance: full transparency and release of all Epstein-related documents. The discussion highlights Trump’s past actions, including banning Epstein from his club, and contrasts that with deep ties Epstein had to prominent Democrats like Bill Clinton and Larry Summers. Buck also addresses the media narrative and propaganda tactics, warning listeners about how focus and repetition are used to smear political opponents. He connects this to his upcoming book, Manufacturing Delusion, which explores the science and history of mind control, propaganda, and mass psychosis. Buck argues that Trump Derangement Syndrome has become a defining pathology of our time, citing expert commentary on how obsessive hatred of Trump has reached clinical levels. He draws parallels to authoritarian regimes and explains how manufactured hysteria threatens American democracy more than any external crisis. The hour also touches on national priorities overshadowed by political theater, including affordability, energy prices, border security, and the fight against fentanyl. Buck previews later segments featuring Miranda Devine’s explosive reporting on the would-be Trump assassin and Eric Trump’s insights on trade and the economy. He closes Hour 1 by reinforcing the importance of truth, transparency, and resisting mass delusion in today’s political climate.

Hour 2 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers breaking news and in-depth analysis on major political and cultural stories. Buck Sexton leads the hour with an exclusive interview featuring Miranda Devine of the New York Post, who reveals shocking details about Thomas Crooks, the would-be assassin of President Donald Trump. Devine explains how Crooks’ online footprint—spanning platforms like YouTube, Gab, and DeviantArt—shows a disturbing evolution from pro-Trump rhetoric to violent anti-Trump threats, including assassination fantasies. She highlights Crooks’ use of aliases, his ties to extremist forums, and even gender identity confusion, noting his adoption of they/them pronouns and links to the “furry” subculture. Devine questions why the FBI and Secret Service failed to act despite clear warning signs, raising concerns about possible agency negligence or concealment. The conversation pivots to Hunter Biden, after audio surfaces of him launching personal attacks on Devine, calling her unethical and insulting her appearance. Buck and Miranda dissect Biden’s behavior, emphasizing his inability to refute documented evidence of corruption involving foreign business deals and influence-peddling during Joe Biden’s vice presidency. The segment underscores the Biden family scandal, Hunter’s legal immunity, and the media’s complicity in shielding Democrats from accountability. Buck then shifts focus to Donald Trump’s fiery Oval Office exchange with ABC News reporter Mary Bruce, who pressed him on Saudi business ties and the upcoming Epstein Files Transparency Act vote. Trump blasts ABC as “fake news,” defends his record, and reiterates that he expelled Jeffrey Epstein from his club years ago—contrasting that with Epstein’s deep ties to Bill Clinton and other Democratic elites. Trump frames the Epstein narrative as a “Democrat hoax” aimed at distracting from his administration’s economic successes, including historic reductions in inflation and energy costs. Buck reinforces this point with commentary from Stephen Miller, who credits Trump for restoring affordability and combating inflation. The hour closes with cultural commentary and listener talkbacks on tipping etiquette and dating advice, adding a relatable and lighthearted touch to the intense political discussion. Buck emphasizes generosity and confidence as keys to navigating everyday life.

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show zeroes in on immigration policy, economic recovery, and breaking political news. Buck Sexton opens with a deep dive into illegal immigration under Biden, highlighting the estimated 10 million migrants who entered the U.S. during his presidency. Buck argues that this influx has strained housing, healthcare, and job markets, framing it as a massive economic and social burden on American taxpayers. He cites JD Vance’s remarks on housing affordability, explaining how unchecked immigration and limited housing supply have driven prices sky-high, especially in cities like New York where migrants occupy up to 25% of hotel rooms at taxpayer expense. The conversation expands to legal immigration reform, with Buck and Governor Ron DeSantis stressing the need for a critical reassessment of current policies. DeSantis warns against the assumption that all legal immigration is inherently good, urging a focus on assimilation and cultural cohesion. Buck uses a striking analogy—too much water can kill you—to illustrate how excessive immigration, even legal, can destabilize a nation. He calls for a pause to restore continuity and shared American identity. Buck welcomes Eric Trump for an in-depth interview on the economy and Trump administration policies. Eric touts his book Under Siege and outlines why he’s “bullish on America,” citing Trump’s aggressive energy strategy, including nuclear and drilling initiatives, as key drivers of GDP growth. He explains how low energy costs, bonus depreciation, historic tax cuts, and tariffs will fuel manufacturing, AI, crypto, and inward investment. Eric contrasts Trump’s economic record with Biden’s “four years of 10% inflation,” blaming Biden for skyrocketing housing and energy costs. He predicts a booming U.S. economy in 2026, bolstered by global investment and trade deals. The hour closes with lighter listener talkbacks on dating etiquette and pickup lines, followed by breaking news: the House passes the Epstein Files Transparency Act in a 427–1 vote, sending the bill to the Senate. Buck applauds the move for transparency, noting Trump’s support for full disclosure.

Socialism Summit Buck Sexton opens with a preview of the highly anticipated meeting between President Donald Trump and New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, scheduled for later in the day at the White House. Buck frames this as a “socialism summit,” highlighting the stark ideological divide between Trump’s America First agenda and Mamdani’s progressive platform, which includes rent freezes, free public transit, and universal childcare. Buck argues these policies mirror European-style democratic socialism and warns they will worsen affordability issues rather than solve them. The discussion expands to the broader Democratic Party’s shift toward socialism, noting the House’s recent bipartisan vote condemning the “horrors of socialism.” Buck contrasts Mamdani’s vision with the historical roots of New York City as a capitalist hub and explains why electing an open socialist in America’s largest city signals a troubling trend. He predicts Democrats will attempt to rebrand themselves as champions of the working class ahead of the midterms, focusing on affordability as the defining issue of the next election cycle. We Need to Talk About This Buck then pivots to a horrific crime in Chicago, where a woman was set on fire aboard a public transit train. He blasts Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s tepid response and systemic failures that allowed the suspect—who had 70-plus prior arrests and a violent criminal history—to remain free. Buck contrasts the muted media coverage of this attack with the wall-to-wall outrage over past hoaxes like Jussie Smollett, exposing the racial and ideological double standards in mainstream reporting. He argues progressive criminal justice policies and refusal to enforce accountability have made major cities unsafe, warning that similar outcomes could emerge under Momani’s leadership in New York. Mess Around and Find Out Buck dissects the fallout from a Democrat PSA video featuring lawmakers like Mark Kelly and Alyssa Slotkin, which urged military and intelligence personnel to refuse “illegal orders.” Buck argues the video was a veiled attempt to undermine President Trump’s authority as Commander-in-Chief, framing it as subversive and politically motivated. He highlights Trump’s fiery response on Truth Social, where Trump called the behavior “seditious” and noted that such acts are “punishable by death” under federal law—a statement that triggered outrage from Democrats and media figures like Chuck Schumer, who accused Trump of inciting violence. Buck counters these claims by pointing out the hypocrisy of Democrats, citing recent left-wing political violence, including assassination attempts on Trump and other conservatives. The discussion expands to Mark Kelly’s defense of the PSA, where he referenced Trump’s past comments about protestors, and Buck dismantles the narrative that Trump poses a unique threat. He emphasizes how Democrats weaponize Nazi comparisons to justify hostility toward conservatives, creating a dangerous climate that fuels real-world violence. Listener talkbacks and VIP emails echo frustration over the PSA, calling it divisive and near-treasonous, while Buck underscores that accountability is unlikely despite the cultural Marxist undertones. CIA Officer Mike Baker Former CIA Officer Mike Baker joins the show to discuss the escalating U.S. military presence in the Caribbean under Operation Southern Spear, the largest naval buildup since the Cuban Missile Crisis. Buck and Baker break down the strategic objectives behind recent strikes on narco-trafficking boats and explore whether this pressure campaign could lead to the collapse of Nicolás Maduro’s regime in Venezuela. They examine the geopolitical ripple effects, including potential consequences for Cuba, Russian and Chinese interests, and Iran’s involvement, while debating the risks and realities of regime change versus internal transition.

Listener talkbacks and VIP emails echo frustration over the PSA, calling it divisive and near-treasonous, while Buck underscores that accountability is unlikely despite the cultural Marxist undertones. Midway through the hour, Buck pivots to a lighter but viral political story: Representative Jasmine Crockett’s blunder involving Jeffrey Epstein donations. Crockett mistakenly accused Republicans of taking money from Epstein without realizing the donor was a different Jeffrey Epstein—a respected doctor from Long Island. Buck shares the doctor’s humorous response and explores the broader theme of media gullibility and partisan theatrics. The hour closes with cultural commentary on civility and manners during holiday travel, featuring Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy’s PSA urging Americans to bring back the “golden age of travel” by showing courtesy on planes and in airports. Buck applauds the message, lamenting the decline of basic manners in public spaces and encouraging listeners to embrace kindness during the busy holiday season.

Hour 3 of the Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a dynamic mix of national security analysis, cultural commentary, and political insights. The hour kicks off with former CIA Officer Mike Baker discussing the escalating U.S. military presence in the Caribbean under Operation Southern Spear, the largest naval buildup since the Cuban Missile Crisis. Buck and Baker break down the strategic objectives behind recent strikes on narco-trafficking boats and explore whether this pressure campaign could lead to the collapse of Nicolás Maduro’s regime in Venezuela. They examine the geopolitical ripple effects, including potential consequences for Cuba, Russian and Chinese interests, and Iran’s involvement, while debating the risks and realities of regime change versus internal transition. The conversation pivots to the war on drugs, with Buck revealing early-stage planning for U.S. special operations missions inside Mexico targeting drug cartels. He argues that Americans overwhelmingly support aggressive measures to combat fentanyl trafficking, citing the devastating societal impact of the opioid crisis. This segment underscores the growing likelihood of paramilitary operations and intelligence-driven missions aimed at dismantling cartel networks. Later, Buck welcomes Tudor Dixon, host of the Tudor Dixon Podcast, for a candid discussion on Michelle Obama’s controversial book tour and its “Shame America” tone. Dixon critiques Obama’s complaints about life as First Lady despite her immense wealth and influence, questioning whether her media blitz signals future political ambitions. The conversation then shifts to Gretchen Whitmer’s presidential aspirations, with Dixon revealing that Whitmer has raised millions and repurposed her campaign team for a potential 2028 run. Dixon predicts Whitmer will struggle in a national primary against polished contenders like Gavin Newsom, citing her poor off-the-cuff skills and lack of substantive achievements. The hour closes with cultural analysis on shifting social norms, including a Pew Research study showing declining interest in marriage among young women.
